C3656 There Was No Way out
"You don't know?"
"This..."
The moment these words came out, there was an uproar. Everyone stared at Chen Xiao, confirming that what he said was true, but Chen Xiao did not explain anything. Only then did everyone understand that what Chen Xiao said was true.
"Is Elder An really dead?" A Tribulation Transcender from the Su family stood up, stared at Chen Xiao with bloodshot eyes and questioned.
Chen Xiao glanced at him and said, "The odds are against us."
"You, then why didn't you save Elder An too?" The Su Family's Tribulation Transcender asked loudly, looking furious.
"Su Yu, pay attention to your words." When Qin Xinxiong saw this, he immediately berated him while smiling apologetically at Chen Xiao.
Qin Xinxiong knew very well that for Chen Xiao to be able to escape with his life and even save the heavily injured Qin Daoyuan, he had already done his best and taken an extremely huge risk.
Asking him to save another Su Chengan was no different from forcing him to do something he didn't want to. Su Yu's words were too much.
Su Yu also knew that he had been too impulsive. His face darkened, and he said apologetically, "I'm sorry, Elder Chen Xiao. My words just now were too much. I apologize to you."
Hearing this, Chen Xiao's face finally relaxed a little. He replied: "It's fine. I can understand how you feel, but I don't wish for there to be a next time."
Hearing this, Su Yu's expression changed greatly. It was especially gloomy and ugly, but he could only admit it.
"I understand."
He knew clearly that Chen Xiao's strength and potential were both far stronger than his, and that he had been personally guided by the Heavenly Star Sword Supreme. If he really wanted to go against Chen Xiao, he would be the one to suffer a loss.
He had been too concerned about Su Cheng'an to know what to do, but now that he had calmed down, he regretted it.
"That's more like it. We are all the same kind of people. There's no need to act on impulse. The threat of dealing with the demons together is the most important." Qin Xinxiong stepped forward and quickly tried to smooth things over.
At this moment, a Tribulation Transcender opened his mouth and said: "Su Cheng'an's strength is not weak, and can be considered to be one of the top in the Purple Cloud City. Logically speaking, he shouldn't have been hit so easily. Elder Chen Xiao, what exactly did you guys encounter?"
Chen Xiao didn't hide anything and replied: "The secret technique of the Demon Race, Demon Statue, can gather the power of several people and combine them into one. It is extremely difficult to deal with. Big Brother Qin was heavily injured by this technique. If he were to fight him head on, unless he was at the Immortal Realm, he would definitely not be his match."
"This ..."
"It's actually this terrifying?"
The expressions of everyone present changed drastically when they heard this. They were extremely worried. The situation seemed to be worsening.
Seeing this, Qin Xinxiong stood out and comforted the crowd, saying: "Everyone, there is no need to be so anxious. We only need to defend the Black Iron City and there is nothing to worry about. The other side will definitely not dare to truly move out in full force. Our human race has been standing tall in the God Realm for so many years, how could we be so weak?"
"Right, right, right. The elder is right."
"That's right. We just need to defend the Black Iron City and block the Seawatch City. The rest will depend on Lord Zi Jin."
"From the looks of it, that's all we can do."
At this point in time, everyone had made up their minds. They would defend the Mystic Metal City and not retreat even half a step.
Because they knew that if they retreated, then the Purple Cloud City behind them might really be lost. There were their family members and relatives in the Purple Cloud City and there was no way to retreat.
"Chen Xiao, you should first treat your injuries. You don't need to worry about anything else. It's definitely safe in the Black Iron City." Qin Xinxiong said to Chen Xiao.
"Okay, okay." Chen Xiao nodded.
Only then did Qin Xinxiong wave his hand and said, "All of you, disperse. Everyone return to your own positions."
"Yes."
"Understood."
But at this moment, a change suddenly occurred.
Suddenly, a loud bang sounded as if there was an earthquake, and it was still approaching the direction of the Black Iron City.
Hearing the huge sound, the faces of Qin Xinxiong and the others changed drastically. They shouted: "What is going on?"
One of the Qin Family disciples rushed into the hall and reported: "Not good, there's an army of the Demon Race. The demon army is attacking us! They're attacking us from the direction of the Seawatch City!"
"A demon army? That is impossible." Qin Xinxiong opened his eyes wide and cursed.
Without saying anything else, he immediately rushed out and flew over to the Black Iron City. He looked down at the distance.
Chen Xiao also followed closely behind, eating a few more healing pills as he silently followed behind Qin Xinxiong, looking at the distant ice-cold horizon.
Waves of smoke and dust spread out, and the black demons covered the sky. They were hundreds of meters tall and pounced towards the Black Iron City like a tsunami.
"What is that? Is it really the Demon Race's army? How could this be possible? How could the Demon Race dare to invade our Human Race's territory? They really deserve to die!" A Tribulation Transcender from the Violet Cloud City cursed.
"It really is the Demon Race army?"
Even Qin Xinxiong's expression was extremely solemn. He clenched his right hand into a fist as he watched this scene in disbelief.
It wasn't just him. Seeing such a terrifying array, the expressions of the cultivators of the Purple Cloud City changed and fear appeared in their hearts.
One had to know that even the Tribulation Transcender started to frown and become scared, so the cultivators of the Prominent Divine stage would be even more scared.
However, after Chen Xiao inspected the situation with his Divine Sense, he discovered that something was amiss. Thus, he said, "It's not the army of the Demon Race, but the army of the Demon Slaves."
"The demon slave army? "What do you mean? Qin Xinxiong was shocked as he asked.
In an instant, everyone's eyes turned towards Chen Xiao, their eyes filled with anticipation.
"The devil slaves are humans controlled by the Demon Master. After being eroded by the demonic Qi, they have turned into demonic slaves that are neither human nor ghost. With a single glance, there must be hundreds of thousands of demonic slaves. They are extremely terrifying. " Chen Xiao replied.
These secrets were naturally told to him by Xi Luo, and he just casually said them.
"Demon slave? There is still such a terrifying method. The demon race really deserves to die. They deserve to be cut into a thousand pieces."
"The methods of the demons are truly disgusting. They drive the human race to be the demons' slaves and make us their enemies. They are truly vicious."
"Look! The Demon Slave army is closing in on us!" A Tribulation Transcender pointed into the distance and said.
As the army under the cover of the black fog came closer and closer, gradually, everyone could see what it really was. It was indeed a group of humans that had been eroded by the demonic Qi. They were like zombies or wild beasts. They landed on all fours and charged towards the Black Iron City.
This scene made the cultivators guarding the Black Iron City feel a chill in their hearts.
If they were facing the Dark Demon Race, they would be able to fight without fear and do their best to survive.
However, the demon slave army in front of them was a human that was exactly the same as them when they were alive, so how could they fight against them?
This was a great mental torture, as well as a cruel test of the soul.
They either killed the demon slaves or died themselves. Some of them would even be eroded into demon slaves and become monsters that were neither human nor ghost.
The atmosphere instantly became weird.
